CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD - username and password to use for proxy
authentication
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, char *userpwd);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be [username]:[password]
to use for the connection to the HTTP proxy. Both the name and the
password are URL decoded before used, so to include for example a colon
in the username you should encode it as %3A. (This is different to how
CURLOPT_USERPWD(3) is used - beware.)
Use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH(3) to specify the authentication method.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
DEFAULT
NULL
